An Extra’s POV

Chapter 561

Looking at the five, they all had training attire on.

Brutus wore light armor, the age and luster of his equipment pretty glaring to an observant eye. Justin and Clark wore similar-looking armor, with the former's looking a lot lighter, while the latter had more bulk to it.

Belle and Lucielle had some Enchanted Items on them, and Belle still had a book in her hand, which made it clear they were most likely practicing Spells. While Belle had the attire similar to a student, Lucielle wore a Mage's cape,with her inner attire being a loose white shirt and long trousers.

Based on everything about their appearance, coupled with the slight looks of exhaustion on the faces of the three Otherworlders, it was easy to deduce that they were just finished with training.

Justin and Clark were with Brutus, while Belle was with Lucielle. They rendezvoused and decided to visit Alicia's room together.

~They come here every day, Master. Ever since she fell asleep and was admitted here.~

The moment Rey heard those words in his head, he felt a little startled and also slightly suspicious.

'Ater, you… did you know they would come here at this time, yet you didn't tell me beforehand?'

Rey's initial plan was to approach them after properly organizing his thoughts. However, that didn't mean he was actively avoiding them.

After all, once he sensed their presence approaching the room, he had more than enough time to leave. They wouldn't have spotted him at all.

But… he didn't.

Perhaps that was because, deep down, he just wanted to get things over with. He didn't want to run anymore, and he simply wanted to see how they would react to him after all this time.

And now…

'... It's the moment of truth, I guess.'

Rey watched as the three finally got over their shock and looked at one other. They nodded, clearly in agreement on something.

Then—

'Here it comes!'

—They finally stepped forward, entering the room while walking towards Rey.

They had serious expressions on their faces; a sharp contrast to the jolly reaction that Lucielle opened up with. Brutus had a fairly neutral expression on his face, and after apologizing for Lucielle's behavior and dragging her away from Rey, he was silent.
